But spring and Joe Stalin being the unpredictable institutions they are, it's hard at this time to tell a peace breeze from another April wind. The latest zephyr from Moscow bears tidings that the retiring Indian ambassador there says Stalin believes there's no major world problem which can't be solved by negotiation. The diplomat.

Sir Sarvapalli Radhakrishnan, who based his statements on a farewell interview with Stalin, said the Russian leader thought "every effort" should be made to get leaders of major nations together to talks things over. Later, in London, Prime Minister Churchill said he would be willing to sit down and talk peace with Stalin "if the circumstances and the situation were favorable." That qualification, of course, could mean almost anything, but at least Churchill didn't take a negative attitude. HAT GIVES the Indian ambassador's statement some point, Is that it follows shortly after Stalin, unexpectedly as a spring gqirall, ehose to answer a series of questions sent to him by a group of American newspaper editors. he didn't say much. Rather, it was what he didn 't say that gave some season for optimism.

He indicated his belief that another world war was growing no closer. He said nothing particularly ominous. These things in themselves signify little. The world has tried too long to read hope into the breezes from off the Russian plains. But hope springs eternal, and what season is more enernally fraught with than spring? Which brings us to another point for optimism.

Observers in Korea report a persistent, if almost indefinable, feeling that an armistice there is not far off, despite the continued deadlock in formal negotiations. BPORTEES ON THE SCENE say there are indications the Communists appear ready to make possible compromises. This cau tious optimism was based partly on radio broadcasts from China that thfrHeds will grant immunity to all prisoners returned by the Allies. But any political weatherman specializing in the Communist is well aware of the phenomen of bewildering Red winds blowing from all quarters at the same time, sometimes signifying little, sogietimes meaning much. And it would be a foolish forecaster, indeed, who, in this tricky mbnth of April, would say what the present winds portend.

They cojH 'd mean that the "spring" of peace is really here, or they could only that the- worst of the "winter" of war is over. At worst, they could mean that we'll have another heavy snow before "summer" really comes.

April 17 (AP) For a little while it looked like this might be a fairly calm summer for the two political parties It would have simplified things for the Democratic convention next July if President Truman wanted to run again And if he didn't, the talk went, he'd try to get the nomination for Gov.

Adlai Stevenson of Illinois. That would have paved the road for Stevenson. But Truijian crossed up the picture. He decided not to run himself. And he wouldn't endorse Stevenson or anyone else.

THEN STEVENSON COMPLICATED things even more by announcing yesterday he didn't want the White House either. When Stevensons announcement hit yesterday, the general reaction was: "Who now?" Sen. Kefauver has been going aroimd saying "my name is Estes Kefauver ma'am, and I'd sure apr- preciate your vote." He's been doing right well at it, better than any other Democrat, in fact. But this doesn't make him any odds-on favorite for the Democratic nomination. AT THIS MOMENT, the convention looks like a cat-and-dog fight among a lot of would-be candidates.

This will be the first time since 1932 that there ever was really any more than one candidate before the convention started. It was Roosevelt in 1936, in 1940 and 1944. And in 1948 it was Truman. From the way things are going among the Republicans their convention next July ought to be a beaut, too. Just a short time ago the backers of General Eisenhower sounded as if the trip to the White House was just a short hike with Ike.

That was after his victory over Sen. Taft in New Hampshire and Minnesota. IT WAS ALSO BEFORE TAFT who has his heart set on the White building on Pennsylvania avenue, began to lasso delegates in large flocks in other states. At the moment it might seem that the problems of the Republican convention will be simplified to the extent of having to choose between two men only, the General and the Senator. But it may not turn out that way.

They may knock themselves out of the nomi-J nation if their supporters stand steadfast in a deadlock. But don't get the notion peace and quiet will be restored after the election to these troubled shores where for years now crises and name-calling have been as familiar as coffee in the morning. THERE'S PRETTY GOOD EVIDENCE to support the view that even if a Republican is elected President and the Republicans control the House, the Democrats will have a majority in the Senate nd run all the committees. That woyjd make it a little unhappy for a Republican President. And if a Democrat wins, with Democrats in a majority in both Houses, that wouldn't be a honeymoon, either.

It hasn't been in the past. The Doctor Says Repeated X-ray Shoe Fittings May Be Injurious to Feet The foot troubles with which so many people are afflicted today are the result of civilization. Few, if any, primitive people who walk without shoes have either flat feet or bunions. Since we cannot go back to walking barefooted on soft, spongy ground, other methods should be sought to prevent the serious foot difficulties which affect so many. The most important thing to do is be sure that a person is well shod, not some of the time, but all of the time.

Of course, keeping the feet dry and clean and giving the feet the beach when possible, or even on the rug in the house- may help some, but the importance of choosing the right shoe is undoubtedly paramount. It is probably not necessary in most instances to use an X-ray machine or fluoroscope as an aid to fitting shoes, but this is commonly done, and the question has been raised repeatedly as to whether it might harm either the cust- tomer or the salesperson. Until recently it was difficult to answer this question correctly, but now a report on this problem has come from the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists. Possible Harm From X-ray This report points out that the use of shoe-fitting fluoroscopic devices are potentially harmful for both and customers. The committee has consequently issued a "guide" designed to lessen the amount of radiation (Xray) to which persons are exposed during the use of fluoroscopic shoe- fitting devices.

The recommendations are too long to quote here, but they should be carefully followed by every shoe store using such a device, and should carry a warning label reading something like this: "Exposure to X-ray may be harmful. Customers must not operate this machine Limit for each customer: Five Xray shoe fitting per day, yearly total not to exceed 20 fittings."
